Transmutation Alchemist (5e Class)
Transmutation Alchemist
An Elf quickly draws a symbol on the ground as she dodges a bandit's serrated blade. She throws her chalk to the side and slams the palm of her hand on the glyph she created, and during a flash of blue light, a newly forged sword emerges from the symbol. She swiftly and skillfully begins to strike down the bandits until those remaining begin to flee. Drawing another symbol on the sword blade, she transforms it into 3 daggers, which she hurls into the backs of those running. When the fighting is over, she draws one last circle and returns the daggers to the earth.
A Human snaps his fingers as fire erupts from thin air, bathing the zombies in flame. He then draws a symbol on the ground, slamming his palm on to it as shackles of earth bind the necromancer forevermore in the dark cave where he held court.
A Dragonborn kneels over the body of his fallen comrade, weeping tears and covered in blood. He frantically begins drawing a large and elaborate symbol on the floor around him. Out of the ground a suit of armor rises as the Dragonborn is suffused with black energy. Wiping away the tears he paints a blood seal in the armor using the blood from his own wounds to call his friends soul back from the afterlife. The suit of armor sits up, and with a hollow voice, thanks the Dragonborn.
Transmutation Alchemists are those who utilize the art of alchemy to alter their surroundings. Alchemy requires an extensive knowledge of chemistry, physics, magic, and ancient alchemical theory. Although anyone can preform alchemy, only a few are trained to this level and even fewer become truly great.
Creating a Transmutation Alchemist
When creating a Transmutation Alchemist, one should ask themselves these questions. Who trained you? How did you unlock your power? Do you shape stone and earth to suit your needs? Or merely use powerful blasts of elemental force to destroy your enemies? Perhaps you care not for violence and are only interested in the science.

Transmutation Circle
At 1st level, alchemists can manifest their powers through the use of Transmutation Circles. All created circles occupy the space you were in when you created it, and can only be activated while within 5 ft. of it. Some circles can be further empowered by overloading them with extra Alchemical Stamina. Circles come in varying sizes. The size of the Circle determines its Base Cost to use it, as well as what action it can be created and used as.
Size | Base Cost | Action to Use |
---|---|---|
Small | 2 | Bonus Action |
Medium | 4 | Action |
Large | 6 | Action + Bonus Action |
Equivalent Exchange
Making a Circle of a specific element requires the presence of the element within 60 ft. of the Circle. In order for a transmutation to succeed, an amount of the source material equal or greater to the amount used must be present to fuel the reaction. If enough of the source material is not present, however, the reaction fails. You can only manipulate a number of pounds equal to (10 x your Alchemist level x your Intelligence modifier (minimum 1) . When you use a Transmutation Circle, you must roll 1d4. On a 1, the Circle is destroyed, and can not be used again until it is redrawn. You know a number of Circles equal to your proficiency modifier + your int modifier. You may change 1 known Circle at the end of a long rest. Each instance of Imitate Spell counts as a separate spell.
Alchemic Origin

On a 1, the circle is destroyed, and can not be used again until the end of your next long rest. You may immediately regain use when you use Alchemic Recovery, but doing so negates the Alchemic Stamina regain.
